2. Will the Arizona regulation withstand Commerce Clause scrutiny? Why or why not?
This is an actual court case and the US Supreme Court ruled against Arizona's regulation because it interferes with interstate commerce.

First, we need to get the predetermined rate
Predetermined rate = Cost of manufacturing overhead / Cost driver

= Applied Overhead cost - Actual manufacturing overhead
= $1,845,000 - $1,810,000
= $35,000
The above is an over application of overhead cost because the cost applied exceed the actual cost.
